I'm glad to hear this, I have never tried to screenshot my seed phrase before because I know the implications of doing so, nothing is entirely safe and secret online, one way or another information can be hacked. The safety of your seed phrase is 100% your responsibility, you cannot blame your wallet provider if it is compromised in anyway, that is every wallet owners must make the security of their seed phrase a top priority. Seed phrase is the price of self custody, without it in your custody your coins can become somebody else's coins if they import it to another wallet.


And a screenshot is one of the biggest mistakes. One of the biggest mistakes that people make is that they think saving their seed phrase online is safe, but that is one of the wrong mistakes people make, and it is better to even write it down in a safe place, and people are still finding it very hard to keep their seed phrase safe, and when you are writing it down, you have to consider the fact that anything can also happen, and it can even get damaged. So it is better to have a more secure means to save your seed phrase. And I don't think this wallet will even allow you to screenshot your seed phrase because they know how dangerous it can be, so it's programmed, and people should understand the dangers of screen recording or saving it on your phone.

And the issue is that why would you even blame the wallet provider? The person who is supposed to be blamed is the user for being careless, and there are people who will intentionally give out their seed phrase to scammers, and before they know it, they are already compromised.
